Every cab I've been in for the last few years has stickers saying there's a £50 minimum charge if your sick in it :thumbup:

i would have, but he was dragged out of the cab and then colasped onto the floor and didn't even move for 10 minutes :roll:
theres a soiling charge of £40 but he threw up so much that although i got the cab clean, the rear seats were still wet, so i had to call it a night, tbh i wish the cab had plastic seat covers instead of a cloth covering.
i had to go to a cost cutters and spend a tenner on cleaning materials and air freshners, i even bought a pair of slow yellow marigolds.... :lol:
ferking hate drunks, still i managed to blag a £60 soiling charge out of his mate, i still lose out on a nights work on probably the best week of the year :x :x

Top tip BSM - bicarbonate of soda is one of the best things known to man for ridding anything of smells, and cleaning all sorts of things. And it's cheap as the proverbial compared to branded cleaners etc, get it from a hardware store not the food shelf

I have just been reading up on bicarbonate of soda and it's incredible the amount of different uses it has. I already new about using white vinegar for cleaning windows and have used that before along with old newspaper for drying. I find it interesting all these kinds of products that have other uses. And sometimes they are cheaper and do a better job than a product that is specifically designed for a purpose.

I use it in loads of things - brings sinks up shiny new instantly, in with the laundry (cuts the amount of liquid you need), spinkle into the carpet every now and then, used to brush the dogs with it every so often, has cleared red wine out of the carpet (with salt), with white vinegar for showers and baths etc, and so on and so on. And so cheap. A lot of products are based on basic materials, tarted up and marked up massively - e.g. Shake n Vac for one

body work all off and hanging up from the garage roof, fluids drained [from the bike!] and tool returned from Marty so engine nuts will be undone next. Now have to build 2 matching engine stands so I can have the old and new engine side by side to swap all the fittings over and then drop the frame on the replacement engine when it is all dressed.

Still thinking I can do the frame swap with the front wheel still on the frame, so I have Lloydie on speed dial incase i get stuck

How about you do a seperate thread on your winter bike strip down. Just a thought :0)

I used to do alot of interiors and had one riddled with dead mice 3 times we did it and still the smell came back.
Then finally me and owner stripped all is subaru down and found 3 more dead mice :sick: .very strange how they had gone through back seat bottom seat and nested under the back bottom seat.As use have to wombles about to get there :lol:
Then I have done them with vomit people giveing birth in cars all sorts of stuff.
But yes bio brisk contains bacteria to kill smells try your local autosmart rep BSM just ask suej she will let you know your local reps number :thumbup:
